The ICN now calls on your group for advice. Your job is to convince the ICN board that your kingdom is or is not an effective classification group. This will be done by presenting distinguishing features of your organisms' Kingdom, using the organisms your group studied as examples and comparing the organisms to each other. You will use priatepad.net to present your position to the ICN board of directors.
Piratepad.net: www.piratepad.net Select a team leader from your group to log onto priatepad.net. Your leader should create a pad and then share the code (after the backslash) with the other group members. Each group member should sign using your first name to join the site and receive a specific color code which indicates your contribution to the pad. You will use the electronic whiteboard to collaborate with your group members, organize and present your information for this project.
Guiding Questions:
What are the defining characteristics of your Kingdom? Explain how each organism is an example of the Kingdom. How well does your Kingdom define the group of organisms you and your group members have been assigned?
What To Do: 1) Generate a list of the defining characteristics for your kingdom.
